A private person in real life, Pegula shared snippets from the wedding festivities featuring her colleagues Desirae Krawczyk, Taylor Townsend, Jennifer Brady, and Sloane Stephens. Apart from them, one more guest stole the spotlight, Pegula’s husband Taylor Gahagen. The WTA star married Gahagen in 2021 in North Carolina in a private ceremony after six years of dating.

The WTA star took to her IG profile to share photos from Keys’ wedding. From chilling with Brady, and Townsend to sipping in cocktails, her post expressed their delight at the event.
